how to change dynamic page to static html page

[ethan2cyc]

Hi, all.
I can not find this function in the admin pannel. Is there any modules/add-ons can help?
Thank you.

Please be more clear on what you want to do. If you never change the content of a CMSMS page (including any Smarty tags and their associated modules), its associated stylesheets, or its template, then it is essentially a static page already.

Why do you want a static page? Most people want to do exactly the opposite - change from a static page TO a dynamic page for easy content updates, displaying different content to different users, etc.

because SEO prefers static html page

not true, it seems cms made simple is very SEO friendly. But if you're not sure, why don't you install SEO Tools or Search Engine Optimization Made Simple?

I build a website for my friend. And he said the the SEO company told him that.

thanks to staartmees, I've got more information about the SEO.

never pay or trust a SEO-company.

As long as you're using pretty URLs, there's no way to tell if the page is static or dynamic, from the point of view of the user or search engine. You can even use a .html extension on your pages to 'fool' people into thinking you're using static HTML.

Thanks for your advice, but I have some problems about the pretty URL here http://forum.cmsmadesimple.org/viewtopi ... =3&t=52412
